The STI drivetrain is what I'm after. AWD with a controllable torque vectoring center-diff. Ummm... yes please. If I can get myself over that I'll get the non-STI Limited. Very nice with better mileage. I kinda want the BBK/wheels/power from the start since I don't want to mod. See what happened with my Z? Yup. I refuse to mod now. Just want to buy something ready to go and enjoy the **** out of it.
Yes those cars are built to last most definitely. If you think the Z has a shitty gear box try driving a base . But I know what you mean I could've start modding a long time ago but something is just holding me back. I mean I want to but then again I don't. I probably have a year tops in my Z until I decide to get something more conventional to haul the kiddos around instead of having to drive a damn Altima more than the Z.

Altimas drive for ****. Can't stand those cars. Had one for a rental. Wanted to drive it off a bridge. I would happily take a Chevy Cruze over an Altima any day.

Update -

Darketch and I are meeting at my place at 6:45 Saturday morning to hit the meet up spot at 7:30 and then on to WB. Should be a big turnout again. A bunch of the old Acura crew will be meeting up in the morning so it'll be a good cruise up. If you can make the local meet time of 6:45 and wish to cruise with us on the first leg contact me and I'll send a pm with the info.

Post meet brunch is also going to happen. Upon return my friend and I will be going to the Wine Fest at the VBCC. Anyone wishing to go should get their tickets now.

No idea. We'll figure it out when we are up there. Those dudes usually find a good place. I just follow.
